Virtual Assistant Bootcamp - Work from Home Podcast

One of the great things about freelancing is this: you don’t have to choose between a career or family.

Because it IS possible to build a freelancing business while raising your children.

And this is what first-time mom Fatima is doing.

She got her first client before she gave birth.

And the best part is her client lets her work in her free time! ;-)

Each year brings its own set of blessings, challenges, and lessons to learn and 2020 was certainly no exception.

As we head into 2021, let’s all reflect on what we’ve accomplished, what we’ve overcome, and the lessons we want to carry into the New Year.

LIVE Monday Motivation 12/7 - Comfort Zones

We do the same routine every day, and nothing changes.

We haven’t changed because we are afraid of failure, and there is no progress but the fact is changes are the only constant in the world,

Get out of your comfort zone.

This FLIP Chat & Chill episode we will be covering a very important topic in freelancing. If you or someone you know is interested in switching careers or going freelance, this discussion is a must-watch!

- How much time do I need to get myself fully prepared?
- What are the money matters to be considered when transitioning to freelancing?
- Is there a roadmap I can follow?
- What questions do I need to ask myself when planning it out?

These are some of the things we’re going to talk about in this episode of FLIP Chat and Chill. Hope to see you there so you won’t end up jumping into freelancing unprepared. We don’t want to hear you say, "Shucks, hindi pa pala ako ready!"

It’s a brand new year for all of us.

And hope it’s a better and impressive one.

Aside from creating a list of resolutions, another thing that keeps most people busy at the start of the year is filing for taxes.

That includes us — freelancers.

This is why we decided to talk about "Freelancing and Taxes: What Every Pinoy Gig Worker Should Know" for our first FLIP Chat & Chill session for the year.

LIVE Monday Motivation: Challenges and Changes

If you’ve been freelancing for some time or is planning to be a freelancer, chances are ...

... you have to be your own boss, employee, accountant, and everything else in between.

And if you can’t manage your time well, you might get overwhelmed.

Or stressed.

But how can you handle various client tasks without neglecting your house duties?

If you’re a mom, how will you be able to do your project while taking care of your kids?

I’m super excited about our JasSuccess!

Because we’ll have a millennial freelancer in the house.

He’s a food cart business co-owner.

He’s one of the managers of their carinderia business.

Hanep di ba?

At a young age, he has done so much.

But he was not excused from the rejections that we freelancers experience.

Walang pumapansin sa kanya sa Upwork.

May pumansin sa Hubstaff pero hanggang interview lang.

So how did he gain momentum to pursue freelancing?

Let’s find out as he shares his journey with us.

You probably heard of Oprah and Steve Jobs.

Oprah being one of the best talk show hosts.

And Steve being the co-founder of Apple.

But who’s Josie?

You’ll find out!

She will share her freelancing success story with us — specifically how a data entry specialist survived the pandemic.

Be sure to join us.

See you!

Just like any other business, becoming a virtual assistant is no different.

You’ll need to have (or be willing to learn) a marketable skill — something you can offer your clients in exchange for a fee.

You can start with one skill and stick with it.

OR

If you’re just starting out, you can offer virtual assistant skills that businesses are willing to pay for.

And if you have no idea what are these skills, you’re in for a treat!

This Monday, January 18, at 6 PM, we’ll talk about "Essential VA Skills To Help You Get Hired."

See you in our FLIP Chat & Chill.
